During the ripening process, its pinkish-orange rind is smeared with grayish-white penicillium. Le Fou Du Roi offers a creamy flavour with buttery, grassy and nutty aroma. The interior has a supple, melt-in-your-mouth texture with aromas of butter, peanuts, hay and a touch of farm goodness.
From la fromagerie LE FROMAGE AU VILLAGE in Lorrainville, Québec
Le Cru du Clocher reserve 2 years
- Type of milk: raw cow’s milk
- Texture: firm
This 2 year Cru du Clocher still has its creamy texture, but it also has more pronounced flavours. This cheese has developed a bite and it is well balanced with the milky, smooth cheddar flavour. Le Cru du Clocher has a marvellous taste that is reminiscent of Cheddars made fifty years ago, when there was a cheese maker in every village.
